The Major. Wife.

Civilians are never quite able to under.
stand the grouods upon which the wives
OF army officers give themselves airs OF
social superiority, but they arc keenly
alive to the fact A lady who bad been
repeatedly .snubbed by an old school
friend who bad married moior, aroused
herself to vengence tho other day. AT a
luncheon party where the subject of the
removal OF civil service oiicals chanced TO
come up for discussion, she leaned across
the table toward her friend, aud remarked
with an air Of much solicltude:
l hope these political changes do not
effect Major A. Is position,
Affect Major A. 5 position, the other re.
peated In amazement, Of course not. What
do you meau'
Oh, ! didn't know, the other observed
sweetly. But the wife Of postmaster
wrote me the other day, in dreadful
doleful strain; aud ! thought Of you at
once. 1t must be SO trying to be in the
Government service, where today You may
be all right and tomorrow be nobody.
The majors wife glared at her frierd in
a rage so great that she could think OF
nothing whatever to say, and the victory
for that day at least was not with the
army.

II any one were to walk one way through
all the streets OF London he would be
obliged to go a distance of two thousand
six hundred miles, or as far as it is across
the American continent from New York to
San Francisco. This will give an idea Of
what would have to be done in order TO see
even the greater part Of London. In our
approach to this city, as we'll as our ram i.
bles through its streets, we shall not be
struck SO much by its splendid and impos
ing appearance as by its immeDsity. Go
where we may, there seems to be no end
to the town. 1t is fourteen miles one way
and eight miles the other. And contains
population of nearly four million people,
which is greater than that Of Switz
erland or the Kingdoms Of Denmark and
Greece combined. We are told on good
authority that there are more Scotchmen
in London than 10 Edinburgh, more Irish :
men than in Dublin, and more Jews than
in Palestine, with foreigners from all parts
Of the world, including great number Of
Americans. Yet there are SO many Eag
lishmen in London that one is not likely tn
to notice the presence Of these people II
other nations This vast body OF cl.izeDs
some so rich that they never can count
their money, aud some so poor that they
never have any to count eat every year
four hundred thousand oxen, one and a
half million sheep, eight million chickens
and game birds, not TO speak OF calves,
hogs. and different kinds Of fish, They
consume FIVE bundred million oysters.
which, although il seems like large mum.
Der, il equally divided among all the peo
pie, would only give one oyster every
third day to each person. There are three
hundred thousand servants 10 London,
enough people TO make large city; but
as this gives only one servant TO each doz
en- citizens 1t is quite evident that great
many OF the people must wait on then
selves. Things are very unequally divi3
ed 10 London: and / have DO doubt thai
instead Of there being one servant 10
twelve persons some Of the rich lords and
ladies have twelve servants apiece -. II
